You're insufferable. I'd probably shrug it off and laugh honestly.

This is fair. I don't care how much Castillo makes. I care about how much Jerry Reinsdorf would be willing to spend on the 2027 team. Castillo at $23 million with Dominguez at $10 million is different than Castillo at $23 million and Seranthony Dominguez off the team with no salary committed. That was my basic point. I'm shocked that anyone took Dominguez. I'm not excusing him for anything but I do think the deal was fine. Am I GetzBot now? Technically no. But this is a Jerry Reinsdorf org and every last cent matters. I actually think it's the opposite. They weren't willing to trade good prospects. They took on plenty of $$.

Are you insinuating that I tweeted that because the team told me to? I was watching the game and Boston reminds me of the Astros while they were cheating right now. That's it. That's the whole story. I have no idea whether Davis Martin was actually tipping pitches or not. The White Sox likely wouldn't see Boston again until the ALCS potentially though so none of this really matters.

Singling on that nasty sinker from Brazoban was insane. Something stinks here.

Has nothing to do with praising or liking the trade. I totally understand not liking the trade or thinking they should've done something more or different. Be honest in the assessment though. Not mentioning Seranthony Dominguez is disingenuous. They took on Castillo's money but they got rid of Dominguez and his salary within the scope of the deal. It's like $12-13 million for Castillo in 2027 essentially and he'd probably get close to that on the open market still. Keith Law didn't write it. It was someone named Johnny Flores Jr. I couldn't find him or I would've tagged him.

Doyle has minor league options.

Yeah. Live at 8.

Adams was always piggybacking tonight.

I'd be absolutely shocked if he's back. I thought he was gone after last season. The Sox intentionally went from one of best tv booths to one of the worst. I expect them to hire an adult at some point in the off-season. It's market 3. Wayne Randazzo, Stephen Nelson, Jack McMullen, Adam Amin and countless others make plenty of sense.

I don't know. Angels never trade guys and dudes like this with 2.5 years of control don't often move due to asking price. I've heard they asked the Cubs for Hartshorn and Ben Brown. Bonemer or Braden Montgomery plus

Detmers is pretty damn good.

If this was the price for Detmers, I think he'd be here already.

The Fegan piece is great. Schultz has to be close to the innings limit, regardless. They've made lots of changes with him that seem unnecessary. There have been many pitching development issues this year. I don't know who is to blame necessary but none of Schultz, Smith, Taylor, McDougal or Oppor is currently starting every 5th day in the majors on a big league workload and I personally think that's an issue. Schultz likely goes to bullpen role after the deadline I'd think. You seem pretty confrontational for no reason though.

I'd be very surprised. Asking price sounds astronomical. Fake account Fake account.

I'm sorry but you literally have no idea what you're talking about. The White Sox had $21.5 million to spend. How they spend that money doesn't really matter. This is the draft class in order; essentially. Roch Cholowsky $10.35 million Cole Prosek $3.2 million (equivalent to #30 overall) Landon Thome $2.5 million (equivalent to #41 overall) Alex Weingartner $1.4 million (equivalent to #64 overall) Joey Volchko $1.2 million (equivalent to #70 overall) Kyle Casteel $1.25 million (equivalent to #69 overall) Eric Segura $750K Cal Scolari $550K Clay Burdette $290K Braden Holcomb $160K The Sox did a masterful job of maximizing their pool space. Best player in the class, multiple swings at prep talent, college pitching and power profiles that they feel good about later. No reaches on college bats in early round etc. Your preferred strategy isn't really a thing. You need to sign all the players in the top 10 or you lose that pick and money. You have to philosophically shift the way you look at draft spending and draft classes. You either don't want to or just choose to remain ignorant because you say the same nonsense every year.
